    That She-Ra Fanfic is Published

    Chapter one and the prologue are out. Chapter two is written. Chapter three is being written. If you want to see Catra be She-ra and a much more emotionally damaged She-ra at that, maybe click the link: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Distaff_Pope/works

    Non pony fanfics

    So, despite saying I wanted to write original work, I realized I still love writing fanfiction. I'm also pretty solidly out of pony fanfics beyond an unsettled itch to get back into Sweetie Belle's head. Luckily, other shows exist with other damaged girls with undiagnosed Borderline Personality Disorder. What I'm saying is, I'm dabbling with a She-ra fanfic where Catara becomes She-ra and was

    Adapted Out

    Ok, so by now, I think I've gone through enough stories to talk about things from the source material that aren't going to be a factor. Most of the reasons why they're omitted should be kind of obvious, but I want to run through them anyway. Note: I love all the things I'm about to talk about, and it hurts me to not include them, but they're not best for this story. I'm just explaining my

    "Marked for Evil" is now "We Killed the Dinosaurs"

    Just a quick PSA. I've changed the title for my current story because Marked for Evil just seemed so angsty. We Killed the Dinosaurs seems less so, in contrast, and I think speaks to the heart of the work more. I'm also debating changing cover art to show the meteor hitting earth and dinosaurs looking on moments before their doom, but I want feedback on that first.

    A Little Rewrite

    So, someone pointed out to me yesterday that they had some issues with the magic camera. The first being how easily Sunset rolled with it once she got photographed, and also how convenient the camera was. In light of that, I rewrote a bit of chapter three and a good bit chapter four. So you don't all have to reread the chapters to see the changes, I'm posting the major changes here. The first is

What's up with that intro? · 5:14pm Sep 5th, 2013

Some of you might have noticed that I posted an introduction to the Royal Ponyville Orchestra and left it up for all of twelve hours before unpublishing it.

Why did I do that?

First, I had always wanted to have some sort of introduction to the story that gave a few hints about later events in the story. It was to serve as a teaser of sorts. I also thought it might help to make the whole thing with Luna on Day 10 a touch less jarring (Although there are references that Tavi had met with Luna before in Days 1 and 2, they just aren't obvious. I might fix that later).

Second, I felt I needed a short little update as Day 11 is moving slower than I would like now that school has started. I want to get this next chapter off the ground, advance the story and keep embarrassing Octavia. Failing that, I thought it would be nice to give you a few hundred words as an introduction, because who doesn't love reading a good introduction?

But, responses have been negative, and most people found the introduction to be unnecessary. I can see their argument, and I have decided to temporarily unpublish the introduction until I have something better to give you all. Hopefully the wait isn't too unbearable, I know it is pretty bad for me. Anyways, if I am VERY good, Chapter 11 should be up by the end of the weekend and the TaviScratch shipping will continue. Also, there might be something about an orchestra thrown in there. Who knows?
